    Description
    Design Studio III offers advanced-level career-minded design and digital media students a design studio experience with real clients, deadlines, and roles. Advanced students will take a leadership role in working with clients and in mentoring other designers. Clients include non-profit organizations, the local business community, and other entities needing design work. Projects include graphic design, Web design, and possibly video production and animation. Through client interviews, small group brainstorming, lecture, and demonstration, students will develop a portfolio of real-world design work. Students will learn to write a client proposal, to interview a client, to experience the client-designer relationship, to set pricing for projects, and to present design work to a team and client. Formerly known as GCOM 493.
